Y2K ADSM System "Snapshot" |

I need to take a snapshot of my ADSM system in a pre-Y2K state. These tapes
are to be held in reserve for a few weeks as a Y2K contingency plan for
recovery.
One way to accomplish this, so I have been told, would be to mark all the
tapes in the COPYPOOL (the DR set of tapes) as destroyed. The system would
then re-create each of the 230 tapes exactly as they were.
Another option would be to delete each of the COPYPOOL volumes with a
discarddata=yes. We then could "rebuild" the COPYPOOL tapes, and get a full
reclamation in the process.
Would anyone care to comment on the advantages/disadvantages/risks/benefits
of either of these procedures, or perhaps propose another way to accomplish
the task?
Thanks in advance.
